INSURANCE ESTIMATORS AND ADJUSTERS CAN OBTAIN CONTINUING EDUCATION UNITS THROUGH I-CAR TRAININGSeveral states require insurance estimators and adjusters to show evidence of continuous training, mandating a specific amount of training that must be taken to renew their license with Continued Education Units (CEUs).

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR I-CAR TRAINING PATH TASK AREAS: NON-STRUCTURAL
With over seventy training programs, including many new vehicle-specific programs, and three qualification tests, the I-CAR training curriculum provides the collision industry a thorough understanding of the collision repair process. All collision industry professionals may now follow one I-CAR training paths document. Organized by task areas, the training paths allow individuals to select specific training programs and qualification tests that meet their needs. To select the training that is right for you:
Remember: a good training program teaches you new information while incorporating and reviewing some material you already know and use. Below are the I-CAR training programs listed under the Non-Structural task area. Because Group I builds on the Core Training Programs, and programs in Group II build on Group I and so on, you need to have an understanding of materials found in the Core Training Programs as well as previous groups before beginning more advanced training. Non-Structural Repair I
Non-Structural Repair II
Non-Structural Repair III
Non-Structural Repair IV
